CD drive not detecting certain discs

I have a Fujitsu Seimens Scaleo 6405. It had Win XP media edition installed on it as OEM when I bought it 4 years ago. I have since done a complete re-install and put Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate on it.

The drive does not seem to detect certain discs - such as Microsoft FSX etc.
I checked my device drivers and noticed theres a yellow exclamation mark next to an "Unknown device". Upon right clicking it says it's a Universal serial bus controller. I clicked to check for driver updates but it says the most recent one is installed. I inserted the drivers disc I got with this computer but unfortunately it's one of the discs the drive does not recognise.
Upon looking at the Fujitsu website I see theres no Windows 7 drivers on their support page.

Anybody any ideas?

The discs work perfectly on other computers / laptops so it's not due to damage etc etc - some are brand new.

Cheers
